The National Hotel

Great place to meet for a drink, chat and light refreshments. Lovely atmosphere indoors and out. Dog friendly which is awesome.

Quality venue with high standard of food, drinks and service. Corporate team function was well executed and well received by all staff. Highly recommended.

I had my 21st birthday at the National Hotel and the service was absolutely incredible! The staff were so attentive to even the smallest of things. Whilst speeches were happening, they controlled the music and made sure there were no awkward silences. They ensured that they didn’t disturb the flow of the event when serving food and were extremely professional and quiet as they served. I ordered the 3 course menu & the food was amazing and all my guests really enjoyed the food! Someone was quickly accessible whenever we needed something and was always very polite and kind. Sasha was amazing with coordinating with me prior to the event, she set up the table arrangement etc perfectly and made the entire event so hassle-free for us! I was so happy with how well the venue and the staff took care of the event. The venue (garden parlour) size was perfect for our medium-sized group! Would definitely recommend this venue!

Hosted a birthday event at the National for around 50 guests and the service was impeccable. Sasha and her team were a delight to deal with and they set up the event space beautifully and made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the night. Thank you for a great event!

Good vibe, love the courtyard area and the outdoor heaters are really effective so you don't feel the cold too much. Consistently great food and drinks, the specialty cocktails were really good and interesting

Booked a birthday function here and everything was perfect. The staff were extremely helpful and flexible. The venue had an amazing atmosphere and style. And the food and drinks were great and well-priced.

Amazing little beer garden and the best music on saturdays (shameless plug lol). Seriously though, staff are nice, good vibes, function room.tunrtables, great food, and heater in winter, i almost can't fault it!

The event it’s self was fantastic! The space was perfect for the amount of people I had and the coordinator was lovely and communicated really well before and throughout the event.
I purchased the Premium Grazing table and although the products themselves were delicious the presentation of the food was underwhelming, with each product on seperate little plates. I just wish it looked more impressive for how much it costs. Otherwise the event was awesome 10/10 would recommend holding events here?

Beautiful food and great service. Airy and spacious inside and out. Had the Bao and beef ribs shared platter. Delicious.

A modern pub and beergarden in the heart of Richmond with an Asian inspired menu and unique cocktails, perfect for functions, dinner or a beer with friends. Friendly staff, a massive beer garden and live sport!

Was in Victoria Street for Lunar New Year Festival. It was very hot so I made my way to the National for an ice cold beer or 2 Beers were indeed icy cold as I had thirsted for. Met a delightful young family & we had a pleasant chat & I practiced my grandfathering with their 2 loverley children. A great rest before returning to a cooler, weatherwise, Lunar Festival. Festival was also fun, interesting & enjoyable.

Just in case I didn’t already rate this, it was great, for the name and service, if I remember correctly haha.

Thanks again.

Nice place but poor customer service. We ordered a jug of beer and they delivered it to the table next to us. When we realised it, bartenders didn’t want to offer us another jug and told us we should talk with the guys next to us to share the jug (of which they had already drunk half the jug). We didn’t want to seem rude to these guys and the only option was to buy more beer for ourselves. I can’t believe they couldn’t admit their mistake!

I came here with my dogs and sat in the outdoor area. They were vey accommodating from the moment we walked in and served the dogs water before us, which I loved. We ordered drinks and food and the food was a bit iffy.did seem like it was possibly reheated from the day before (sorry if this is false.but it wasn't great). But I didn't necessarily come here for the food. I will try and give it another crack though. Maybe at a different time. Thank you for the lovely service <3

Dog friendly, great service. Even authentic dumplings. They were very accommodating and gave us a warm spot outside on a Saturday night. Thanks guys!

Had the Wednesday steak w salad/chips for a little over $20. Delicious and good value. Parking is also easy and plentiful.
